Whitesides v. Whitesides

Dwight Whitesides and Linda Whitesides’ marriage was dissolved pursuant to a dissolution decree entered in 2012. The court entered its decree reflecting a stipulation entered into by the parties regarding the disposition of Dwight’s interest in a partnership. In 2013, Dwight moved to alter or amend the decree of dissolution, contending that division of the partnership interest could not be accomplished. The district court overruled the motion but made findings regarding the interest’s assignability and Dwight’s compliance with the decree. Linda appealed. The Supreme Court affirmed as modified, holding that the the district court’s findings deprived Linda of due process, and therefore, the extraneous findings were struck as surplusage.
